NovaStars Still Perfect After Five Weeks of Venice Basketball League

Fans flooded the Venice Beach boardwalk on July 4th weekend to catch the fifth week of Venice Basketball League action.

Defending champion and undefeated NovaStars maintained their perfect record with a 77-64 win over The Panda’s Friend. It was a tight game in the first half when No Fear threw a perfect lob to Tristan “King Hustle” Wilson on a 2-on-1 fast-break for the slam to get his team rolling. No Fear racked up 10 points, 7 rebounds, and 15 dimes and King Hustle dropped 33 to secure his 5th straight player of the game honors.

Project Backboard defeated El Crew 80-52 in the only blowout of the afternoon, as player of the game Ryan Nitz finished with 30 points and 12 boards. Meanwhile, Most Hated Players notched a victory highlighted by a baseline drive and one-handed flush by Chosen One, and Hub Select also took care of business and got a W.

Stick with SLAM throughout the summer to see if any VBL squad can catch up to NovaStars.
